We haven't had a computer event in over 30 hours now and we think we may have fixed our issue. Windows, as everyone knows (and NO comments... please... from Apple Fan-bois or Linux geeks), is subject to the occasional crash every now and then. But we've been cruisin' along fat, dumb, and happy until the last three or four days. Witness:
One thing I really like about Vista is the improved on-board diagnostics compared to previous editions of Windows, where such tools were largely non-existent or completely user-UNfriendly. Us run-of-the-mill and somewhat clue-impaired users were largely left out in the cold. Or in the dark.. you choose. But back to our Tale O' Woe. After much searching and googling of obscurely-worded error messages we noticed that this lil event occurred every single time our box puked:
"SideBySide" is an adware application that sneaky-assed web sites deposit on your 'puter without either your knowledge or your permission. And Norton...bless their black lil hearts... allows this app to be installed. Yesterday we removed SideBySide from our box and we have had no subsequent crashes.
